Vášnivý rybář přináší 80 nejnepředvídatelnějších a nejúžasnějších příběhů z prostředí vod oceánů, jezer a divokých řek po celém světě. Jaké to je ulovit krokodýla nebo najít v břiše ryby lidský prst? A co teprve když ryba, která se jen tak nehodlá vzdát svého života, na rybáře zaútočí? Napínavé a strhující historky napsal sám život, i když nad nimi nevěřícně kroutíme hlavou.
"Archaeologist Duncan Rigby thinks he's finally struck it rich when he discovers a trunk of legendary jewels, buried 300 years ago by exiled priests in a remote Mexican mountain range. But he's not the only one on the trail of the famous Jesuit tresaure"--Page 4 of cover.
Shaun Morey, who recounted dozens of unbelievable-but-true grown-up fishermanís tales in his first book, Incredible Fishing Stores, which now has over 350,000 copies in print, turns his attention to young anglers. Kid's Incredible Fishing Stories is a collection of Bizarre Catches, Fierce and Fantastic Fish, Awesome Anglers, and Record Breakers. There's 11-year-old Clayton Ludington, who stood up to a 315-pound yellowfin tuna, and Michael Mealy, a 16-year-old who landed the first tarpon ever caught on rod and reel in Cape Cod--and the first tarpon snared in those waters in 70 years. There's the exceptional angler Weston Fowler, who won his first tarpon tournament at the age of 9 and a few years later caught a 1,000-pound tiger shark. And there's the boy who hooked a piranha in Lake Ronkonkoma, Long Island. Suitable for ages 8 and up.
